Towing system experts

We can, on request, make improvements to our towing ranges to better meet your needs.

Our installations work inside and outside on a track from 20 to several hundred metres long and in dangerous environments.

Mines, petrochemical, metalworking and steel industries, agricultural cooperatives, cement works, container terminals, and transport industries are equipped with towing systems

You want to manoeuvre:

  • Wagons (right up to an unloading or loading station with access on a bascule bridge)
  • Wagons, mobile platforms, furnace bottoms, etc.

You want to make your logistics more profitable while reducing your:

  • Investment costs by simplifying your infrastructures (mobile loading or unloading devices become unnecessary)
  • Operating costs by releasing qualified staff formerly responsible for manoeuvres
  • Maintenance costs thanks to the simplicity and robustness of our equipment

The installation of a towing system is adapted to the existing facilities, local operating conditions (dangerous or polluted environment for example) and the products handled.

These systems are provided by means of the following common parts:

  • Capstan winch

  • Set of horizontal, vertical and deviation pulleys
